Customer Reviews Hoka Clifton 8

At first it bothered my left foot (arch area).

I am on my feet all day. the shoe is not supportive enough to me for the price. The shoe widens across the top part of the shoe, is not supportive enough. After I start wearing it for a while the shoe start feeling like a 8 1/2 wide

This is a great walking shoe. I wouldn't buy for a running shie because it has little to no structure.

Exercised inside for 20 minutes wearing them for the first time and they hurt my feet. Not enough cushion inside the gym shoe.

I recently purchased the Hoka Bondi 8, and returned and purchased the Clifton 8 which will also be returned. After hearing much hype on this brand, I'm very disappointed. (I have never worn Hoka). I would also like to add that I am NOT a runner, and would wear these for walking and being on my feet for long periods. As far as comfort, I think they would be great HOWEVER, in BOTH pairs of the shoes something was rubbing on the inner arch area of both feet. I have flat, low arch feet so I assumed maybe this was the arch BUT it wasn't. After taking off the shoes and looking them over I realized that the problem is the seam where the toe of the shoes is connected to the inner shoe. There is a small but noticeable bump and it rubbed on both of my feet, in both styles of the shoes. For this reason I guess I will never be able to wear this brand.

Product great but I ended up buying them from a different supplier. On 1/4/23, I ordered my shoes. I waited weeks and finally called. The guy said the order was canceled and I would get a refund so I ordered from a different company. Then I get an email stating they were on the way. I called again and the girl said I'd have to wait until they came and then return them. Now I have to take my time to go to a post office to return them. It's been almost a month since I decided to order from Hoka. The other company gave me free shipping and I had my shoes in 4 days. I love your shoes but will not be ordering directly. It has been a mess.

I have worn my shoes for a few weeks thinking they sqeak would go away and it hasn't. I called Hoka to try and fix my issue and they wanted ME to pay to ship them back to company so they can investigate then they would send me another pair. I bought the shoes because I needed them. Not to have to wait 2 months longer for my shoes.

The bottom shoe liner/pad curves up and cuts into my arch on left foot. They are super light weight and feel great otherwise but hard to wear long before I get painful blister on my arch area.

I felt this shoe was making my foot go in an unnatural position. I also didn't feel that it supported my foot on the sole. Returned them for a different style which I also Returned, but that was a size issue. I believe the new ones will be just what I was looking for

This is my second pair of HOKA's that had shredding in the interior heel fabric in less than a year. HOKAs used to be my go-to shoe. I've had two other pairs of Cliftons hat lasted a long time. Love my older SpeedGoats. Something has significantly changed in the design/materials used. Disappointing. I've had so many pairs of HOKAs but I think i'll have to find a new brand.

I wore these for a few weeks and they just didn't quite fit right. I was given a pair of the match 5 for Christmas that I love but these just weren't for me. Too narrow and I felt like the sides weren't supportive enough but I highly recommend the brand just not this shoe.

I hate these shoes for running and it's a shame cause I was so excited. I first started with the ahari 8 but I kinda felt like I might get a blister after about a month of running. With my half marathon training I didn't want to risk it at the longer miles. I did a lot of research and I was between these and the Bondi 7 (which I have not worn yet) I went with these cause they seemed to be light and thought they would be good for running. I bought hoka running socks and have not changed my running pattern. However I am getting blisters on the bottom top and sides of my big toe on my right foot. The shoes are not too tight or too loose. I don't have a wide foot. And now when I run past 4 miles I'm getting this extra pain on the inside of my foot almost like it's not absorbing the shock. I do not over pronate. It's a shame cause I paid a lot to return my ahari's and now I wish I never went though that process.

First off-I bought these and absolutely LOVED the comfort of the shoe. Fantastic!! I have had Hoka sneakers for years but the last 2 pairs I have had-Bondi and Clifton have worn in the inner heel, revealing bumpy fabric and a sharp piece of plastic that makes the sneakers unwearable even when the sole still has plenty of life in them. Previously, I never had this problem with my Hokas. They are the correct length-I could not take a smaller size-but the fine nylon covering over the foam and plastic is not sturdy. It is a design flaw. I write this review hoping Hoka makes a change to this design. They are great sneakers, but I can't buy them again until this design changes. The heel wears out within the first few months.

Shoe is u even.

Think I got a defective pair, the right one near the heel feels much tighter/off compared to left shoe. Never had this problem with another pair of shoes, so don't think it's my foot

i was a huge fan of the 7s, went through 2 pairs of bondis which were not as good and still not bad. i just the clifton 8s (online purchase) and its a no. a big no. 3 weeks in and i feel these are less quality and tighter. i don't want to give up on HOKA so I'll take an afternoon and try in the gaviotas or bondis
